I get all these AFA alerts about stores that ban Christmas. How about a list or a link to a list of shopping alternatives who do not ban Christmas?
Here's a few examples of web sites who were not so ashamed to allow the word Christmas to appear on their front page. (Searching the page for text does not always work, e.g. Starbucks mentions Christmas on their front page, but it's in an image.):

Always get my daughter a Starbucks gift card for Christmas, guess I will do so again.
Thanks for the post!
Buy from Sears. The most pro military company I can find
I do like Sears, thanks!
They did ban the salvation army. I am not sure they are that Christmas friendly by choice.
Sears has a “holiday sale” on their site.
I noticed in the Radio Shack ad, they are singing a Christian Christmas Carol. Actually it surprised me, we have gotten so anti-Christian.
Just saw an ad on the tube for Kohl’s “Holiday Mega-Sale”...
Pffffttttt.....
I thought they changed the lyrics?
Thank you. My wife and I own a small drive-thru coffee shop.
We have many customers who will NEVER go to Charbucks because of their politics (and they have horrible service).
For what it’s worth, we opened December 14, 2006. Charbuck’s opened 3 months later across the street. We have an intense dislike for that company.
How about the Acura ad starting “whoever started all this giving is better than receiving stuff...” How about Jesus Christ himself:Acts 20:35 (King James Version)
35:I have shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to give than to receive.
What do you mean, "by choice"? Do you mean they may have been coerced into mentioning Christmas?
My sChristmas hopping trip is SAVED! Off to the WalMart then to Starbucks for cappucino!
(all I want for Christmas is “An Inconvenient Book” by Glenn Beck)
So far I’ve seen Salvation Army bell ringers at JC Pennys, Walmart and Kroger. I believe Best Buy still doesn’t mention Christmas but Target does, I guess they got hammered pretty badly over their Salvation army ban.
